How can I get my uncles to stop smoking? Please bear in mind they don't speak very good english.?

Bless your heart for wanting to help them. I don't agree with those who say you can't or shouldn't try. If they were stepping in front of a bus, would you be silent?

As a former smoker, I would say appeal to them with love. Find some way to tell them you don't want to lose them or see them suffer. Get your parents to help by having them find literature that is in your uncles' language. They might want to give them patches or nicogum as gifts .

But most of all, just keep caring and loving, do whatever your form of prayer may be. I've had several successes with this kind of approach- even a stranger I bought something from on ebay! You have a lot of power inside you, baby. Believe the best and it will be.

Get a picture of a lung eaten up with cancer, tell him you love him and do not want this to happen to him. And unless he decides for himself, there is nothing else to do. I am on my 8 month of withdrawl after smoking for 30 years.

When they are not looking, dip their smokes into something that tastes bad, like meat loaf or something. Then when they go to smoke, they will by like "Woah, these smokes are meat loafy!" That will probably tick them off pretty bad if you do it to every pack of their smokes, and soon they will either stop smoking, or stop coming to your house.

Speak in the language they understand

ask them

advice them that smoking is bad

it affects the heart and lungs,eyes

i tried and in 3 months they stopped!

Stay out of his business, and just let him smoke until he drops.

Find a picture of the lung of a smoker and show it to him. "A picture is worth a thousand words!"

Learn a speech in their language, to please stop smoking because you love them. That should touch them, but if it is part of their culture, it will be hard to convince them.

mira mama cortales las manos asi no prodan cojer un sigarro mas nunca

Get him addicted to booze or morphine to take his interest away from smoking.
